    Well I think you have more to worry about than sealing up the holes and seals...

    Thing is...there's a LOT of other places for the water to get in other than the holes in te floor. And when you seal it up, te water has no way to get out. So you're stuck with puddles inside your truck and wet floor mats for a long time.

    It's going to come in your doors if its deep enough. Although my door seals did pretty good here. I'd rather hae a few u sealed holes in the floor so it can drain out

    i've heard bad things about the 2nd gen door seals...hell mine are splitting already and i need to replace them..at least my driver side door seals

    so that's definitely a prone area for water to get in

    2/4! I work with a couple guys that came from 2/4 and I had a few students from my last class from 2/4. I may be heading over to 5th Marines next year.

    Moved a couple of couches the other day. OEM roof rack came in handy here.

    How are your MT/Rs holding up in wear? are you rotating in your spare? Someone told me that id be able to get 90,000KMs out of these with a full 5 tire rotation every 5000k

    They seem to be wearing a little faster than my previous KM2's but the performance of these tires are worth it. I am rotating in the spare so it would be great to get that much out of them.

    -All-Pro is too thin. If I hit something like a deer, I could see this bumper crumpling.
    -Tyler's bumper has more clearance in the wheel well. I currently rub on the inside of my All-Pro bumper.
    -Tyler's bumpers have an extra brace

    What bumper are you going with? Should have joined the bandwagon with Bugslee and I, with the Demello! You and I would have still had the better LT kit though.
